Road transport may be the most critical segment in your distribution network. If your transport assets – not just cars, buses, and heavy freight vehicles, but trailers, courier vehicles and even mechanical handling equipment – are not managed well, your business will suffer in terms of downtime, availability of goods, transport costs and – ultimately – customer satisfaction. It is essential that this element of your business is in capable hands.

This course gives your transport management staff the skills to:

Manage vehicle provision and support

Make informed technical, financial and transport policy decisions

Use whole-life and life-cycle costing methodologies

Deal with a range of technical issues

We have designed this programme for staff responsible for managing road transport vehicles and their operation. It covers all aspects of the lives of road vehicles from the creation of fleet policies and vehicle specifications, through funding, life cycle and acquisition decisions, to maintaining the vehicles in roadworthy condition, and disposing of vehicles as they end their operational lives
